The potato was a high-quality product redeemed by the System, while the meat was naturally grown wild. When the two were stewed together, the aroma was particularly enticing.
Xie Sen swallowed his saliva. He had not eaten vegetables for so long, he could not take it anymore!
He poked the potatoes and meat with his chopsticks to make sure they were cooked thoroughly. He scooped out two bowls of vegetables. Just as he was done, he heard a dispute at the door, so he quickly went out.
MeiIn's left hand was against the door frame, while his right hand was against the side of the door, blocking the door. Uncle Xu Da grabbed MeiIn's left hand with both hands and craned his neck to look into the house. He kept sniffing, "Let me in to take a look. What are you doing? It smells so good! "
When the uncle saw Xie Sen, he raised one hand and waved, "Xiao Sen, what delicious food are you making this time?"
Xie Sen was helpless. This uncle's nose was too sharp. He wondered if there was a range hood that did not emit any fragrance.
MeiIn frowned and said coldly, "Uncle, let go. I'm going to close the door."
"Let me see what smells so good and I'll let go," the uncle said, looking at Xie Sen with bright eyes. "Same as last time, no matter what it is, I'll pay double the price. Sell it to me for half a catty!"
Xie Sen spread his hands, "No more." He had cooked all the potatoes.
"You were cooking in the kitchen just now. I don't believe you ate it all by yourself. Sell me some!" The uncle looked at him expectantly, "Name your price. I'm a person who smells something but can't eat it. I feel terrible. I haven't been able to rest well for the past few days."
Xie Sen looked at MeiIn. MeiIn's expression was ugly, but he did not exert any force on the door. If he wanted to close the door, it would not be difficult, but he might hurt the uncle.
Xie Sen smiled. MeiIn's gentleness and kindness made him feel at ease. He felt that MeiIn was completely different from the villain in the book.
He had already seen the uncle's pestering skills. He thought for a while and said, "It's not much. Two hundred Star Coins for a small bowl. Is that okay?"
"Yes, yes!" The uncle hurriedly agreed, showing his personal bracelet, "Quick, I'll transfer the money."
"Wait a moment." Xie Sen turned around and went back to the kitchen. He scooped the remaining stewed potato meat into a food container and handed it to the old man. "Return the food container tomorrow night. We might not be around during the day."
"Okay." The old man's eyes were glued to the lunchbox. He quickly transferred the money, took the lunchbox, and left swiftly.
MeiIn closed the door and turned to look at Xie Sen. "What did you do?"
Xie Sen had looked up the relevant information on the Brent Star's vegetables. There were potatoes here, but the quantity was extremely small. They were only sold in the 'Rich Supermarket'. Just like the cabbages, there was a limited quantity every week. However, the cabbages were limited to 30 catties, and the potatoes were limited to 10, each costing 2000 star coins.
Ordinary people would not buy potatoes to eat. Even if rich people wanted to buy them, they might not be able to buy them. The quantity was too small.
"Potato stew." He didn't hide it. She would know when she ate it later.
MeiIn asked in surprise, "How did you get it?"
Xie Sen smiled and said, "You were probably lucky. Go and take a shower. Otherwise, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
MeiIn glanced at him and nodded before going to the bedroom to wash up. Xie Sen put MeiIn's soup bowl into the thermos and started eating.
He only took a bite, and his eyes immediately narrowed. It was too delicious! Although there were very few condiments, the taste was even better than modern condiments.
The potato was soft and fragrant, and the meat was fresh and tender. After chewing together, the mouth was filled with sweetness. Moreover, the potato and meat were mixed together, and it was not greasy at all. It was delicious.
He finished half of the meal and came out of the shower. He told MeiIn where the soup bowl was, and MeiIn went to get it. Then, she sat opposite him and started eating.
He took a bite and paused. Xie Sen looked at the Energy 1 notification in front of him and smiled. "Is it good?"
MeiIn nodded and continued to eat.
Xie Sen pushed the plate of shredded potato towards her. "Try this. It's not bad either."
Although the potato was twice the size and the taste was diluted, the food redeemed by the system was too good. For people who had not eaten vegetables for a long time, it was definitely a delicacy.
MeiIn picked up a piece with her chopsticks and ate. "It's delicious."
After that, she did not speak again and ate in silence. Xie Sen drank the last mouthful of soup and slumped back in the chair in satisfaction. "Bliss!"
"How much did you spend? I'll transfer half of it to you." MeiIn finished eating and asked as she cleaned up the dishes.
Xie Sen pointed at the house. "Now that you mention it, I haven't paid you rent yet!"
MeiIn said, "No need. My rent hasn't changed since you're living here."
Xie Sen laughed. "I don't need it either. I cook every day to pay for the rent. Speaking of which, you're the one who loses out."
"A potato can pay for a month's rent." MeiIn disagreed. "I don't lose out."
Xie Sen shrugged. "Anyway, I think I'm the one who wins. Isn't it great? Let's not talk about giving money to each other. "
MeiIn looked at him and nodded with a smile. "Okay."
MeiIn went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Xie Sen went back to his room to train the pepper tree and potatoes.
At first, he could only train them individually. After three hours, he could summon them at the same time and command them to cooperate in battle.
The next day, he had to go to work. At ten o 'clock, he stopped training, took a shower, and went to bed.
The next day, he went to work. After he clocked in, he went to find Sun Mao. "Manager Sun, I'm going to participate in the league on the 8th and 9th. I want to take a break. Can I change my weekend to the day after tomorrow?"
Sun Mao looked at the calendar. "The day after tomorrow? After that, you'll have to work eight days in a row. Is that okay? "
"Yes." Xie Sen had already looked at the calendar. His working hours were from 8 to 5: 30. It was very relaxing. He had nothing else to do. He wouldn't feel tired even if he worked for a month.
Sun Mao nodded. "Okay, I've applied for it for you. After you start work on the 10th, go to the HR department to complete the procedures."
"Thank you, Manager!" Xie Sen's eyes lit up. His salary during his internship was 25 yuan per hour. After he became a permanent employee, it would be 50 yuan per hour. He would also be paid during the weekend. His monthly salary was 12,000 yuan. It was much better than his current salary.
Xie Sen worked even harder. He helped everywhere. By 3: 00 in the afternoon, he had already collected 16 energy points. The total value was 26 yuan.
He looked at the next blank page. At the bottom of the page, it showed 26/200.
This meant that activating the third plant required 200 yuan of energy. If he didn't use any energy, he would be able to activate it in less than half a month with his current accumulation speed.
He was very curious about what the third plant would be.
Just as he was thinking, the communicator suddenly rang. Sun Mao's voice was urgent and fast. "Xiao Sen, where are you?"
"I just came out of the large beast bath. What's wrong?"
"Come to the feeding department's area 4 quickly." Sun Mao's voice was urgent. There were chaotic noises around.
Xie Sen was stunned. He had stayed in the male feeding department for two days and had been to areas 1 to 3. He had never been to areas 4 and 5 because there were no contract beasts in areas 4 and 5.
The contract beasts in areas 1 to 5 of the feeding department were D, C, B, A, and S class. There were very few A and S class contract beasts. Almost all of them were wild beasts. The feeding department's areas 4 and 5 only existed in name.
Sun Mao asked him to go to area 4. Was there a new A class contract beast?
Xie Sen ran towards area 4. He was very curious. What did A class contract beast look like and where did it come from?
From afar, he saw four security guards standing at the entrance of area 4. He walked closer. The security guard carefully checked his ID. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he reminded him, "Hurry up and enter."
The moment the door opened, the roar of a huge beast entered his ears. It was accompanied by the shouting of people.
Xie Sen was stunned. Someone pushed his back and he staggered in. The next moment, the door closed behind him. All the sounds in area 4 were cut off.
He steadied himself and looked inside. It was as if he had arrived at an indoor football field. It was a large area of grassland covered by a huge curved cover.
The cover was transparent. Sunlight shone in, making it seem as if he was outside.
On the grassland not far away, a huge lion about three meters tall was surrounded by four two-meter contract beasts. The atmosphere was tense. All the beasts were roaring as if they were going to fight in the next second.
There was a person standing beside each of the contract beasts. They were shouting something.
Xie Sen's heart couldn't help but beat faster. These people were too bold. These beasts could easily trample them to death.
"Xiao Sen, come here quickly!" Sun Mao was very anxious. If they really fought, they would suffer heavy losses. He kept looking at the door. When he saw Xie Sen, he immediately let out a sigh of relief and waved at him.
Xie Sen had no choice but to carefully walk over. He stopped three meters away from Sun Mao and said, "Manager Sun, isn't this … too dangerous?"
"Come and comfort the lion. It's injured."
Giant lion? Xie Sen was stunned. He looked at the giant lion. It was almost an enlarged version of the lion he had seen before. The golden fur on its neck was stained with blood and drooped down, revealing the hideous wound on its back.
"How did it get injured?" Xie Sen couldn't help but ask. It looked so strong.
"It fought with two giant eagle beasts. Our search department found it and brought it back."
Xie Sen looked at Sun Mao and then looked at the lion's unfriendly face. He knew that it wasn't just a simple 'bring'.
"It doesn't seem to be very satisfied." Xie Sen said tactfully.
Sun Mao shrugged helplessly. "It's very difficult for high-level contract beasts to submit unless they meet a master with a particularly high synchronization rate. They prefer to stay in the wild freely. It's okay. Calm it down first. We will find someone to contract it as soon as possible."
Xie Sen frowned. "What if it doesn't want to?"
"As long as the synchronization rate reaches 50%, there will be a way." Sun Mao said. The lion suddenly roared even louder and scratched the ground with its front paws. Sun Mao hurriedly said, "Calm it down."
Xie Sen took a step forward and was frightened by the lion's huge pressure. "I'm scared!"
Sun Mao helplessly walked to him and pulled his arm to the lion's side. "The higher the level of a contract beast, the higher its IQ. If we don't do anything, they won't easily hurt humans."
Xie Sen was trembling as he was brought to the lion's front feet. The lion lowered its head and made a warning sound from its throat.
Xie Sen's legs were weak. He reached out and touched the lion's front legs, trying to be friendly. His mind was full of kindness.
The lion turned its head. After a while, it stepped back in front of Xie Sen and looked down at him. It was too tall. Even if it lowered its head, it was still taller than Xie Sen.
Xie Sen tiptoed and reached out to touch the lion's neck. "Let me treat your wound."
The lion tilted its head and rubbed its chin against his hand. It was as obedient as a cat.
Sun Mao said happily, "I'll get someone to prepare medicine right away." He looked at Xie Sen's posture and added, "Also, I'll get them to send a stool for you to stand on."
Xie Sen's mouth twitched. He was a little tired from standing on his toes. He withdrew his hand, and the lion turned its head to rub against him. He stood close to the lion. As long as there was contact, the natural smell of his body would make animals feel comfortable.
Sure enough, the lion quieted down. It put its chin on its paws and lay down.
Xie Sen rubbed the lion's mane on the side of its neck and opened his bracelet to send a message to MeiIn. "Gold medal, a new lion came today. Contact me when it arrives."
Sun Mao's people quickly sent medicine and a stool. However, the lion was lying down, so the stool was useless.
Xie Sen turned up the volume of his communication device to the maximum in case he missed MeiIn's message.
He carefully cleaned the lion's wound. As he was cleaning, he heard Sun Mao's communication device ring. Sun Mao said, "Ask them to come over."
Xie Sen quickly turned his head and asked, "Who's here?"
"The young master of the Kes family. He's the master of the lion," Sun Mao said.
